How many refugees has HE taken in?
Has HE taken down HIS walls?
Perhaps his time would better spent attacking the shit hole that is Mexico for creating a cesspool of a nation where everyone is trying to get out. A thoroughly corrupt government, drug carters, squalor....this is Mexico. HE is there - where is his condemnation of real problems?
Trump handled it perfectly, IMHO......but far to softly.

The total land are of the Vatican is .17 square miles. note that there is a decimal point in front of that seventeen. How many refugees do you think ,17 square miles could accommodate? And how do you think those refugees could get to the Vatican from Mexico which is five or six thousand miles away? Oh, I'm sorry, I'm asking you to think.

There are several Catholic contenders who would disagree.

Are you for real? You do understand that there are refugees in Europe don't you? Duh? Maybe YOU should try thinking.

So Trump is not a Christian because he build walls.
So, what about the Fondling Fathers of the Catholic Church - are they Christians after what they did to the alter boys?

I guess the pope thinks there's only room for two (2) on those 110 acres.

They get to the Vatican the same way this world was settled -- by slow boat.  Or if the Vatican wanted to part with some of its coin from its fat purses, they could charter airplanes to get those poor Mexicans there.

These refugees?
John Kerry warns the mass influx of migrants could spell a 'near existential threat' to the continent.

I know it isn't a serious question, but my answer is NO.

I agree 100% with you.
So why did the Church protect them all?
Catholics go to great lengths to teach us about Hell.
Why do they hesitate to ship off a few perverts there?

What percentage of the USA was originally part of Mexico?
What do we achieve by calling the Pope a Jerk? Show some respect. Personally, I don't agree with what the Pope said about Trump. But the question, of how USA Christians should treat their Mexican neighbors, needs to be compassionately explored.
Ultimately, Trump can defend himself and his positions. How many of his opponents have called him names i.e. Jerk(Bush)?
Mexicans flee Mexico because of economic and criminal conditions. I'm sure it's not the weather.
Sending home 11million illegal immigrants may be close to impossible. But allowing 11million to become 25million would be stupid.
Maybe the Pope's comments about Trump are forcing us to rethink and develop a more Christian solution to the problem.
Enough said.

They could get out from under the high taxes they pay for the social safety net system that has bankrupted them all and stick the Muslims with the future debt.

You probably forgot about all of the churches and land held in many countries around the world, controlled by the Catholic church.
